This makes sense, because just running the club takes 'money; a fair anlountof money. For example, at present prices .it 'costr £50 to send out'one newsletter.

' .Owing to"~everal f~ctors; the present economic situEltiori, 'the fact that the excellent 1975 con had to be subsidised from S.T.A.G. funds, the financial position bf the club is giving room for concern. One of the greatest drains on our funds is the mainten­ ance of Life membership. Life members are unprofitable - we have to payout for them, and get no regular income in return. Of course, when the Life membership was instituted it WEIS never visualised'that costsw~uld rise so high) nOr that S.T.A.G~ would acquire such 8 large "~ife memb ership.

Wright. 3 Dear friends andFe~low Tr~kkies, As you know, we have decided to hend over the running of S~T.A.G~ into the capable care of Janet, Sheila, Eeth and Helen. It was not 8 decision we made lightly, but after c~r~fulconsider­ ation, we made it for several reasons. The main one ~and mos~ important one - was that, after running S .T·.lLG. for well over itwo years, it was time for a change. For without it, things become stale, and we did.not .want this to happen. S.T.A.G. has ccime_~ long way since thee~rly days when, alting with the other thtrty known STAR TREK fans in Great Eritain we shared a dreem; that dream came true twice'in the shape of two Conventions, and we hope we started something which will continue and prove conclusively that STAR TREK still lives! Now, S~T.A.G~ has 400 members, and we are very pleased that, through the club, we were able to share our enthusiesm with so many of you.' We are not deserting STAR TREK entirely! It is nOWB part of our lives which is very close to us. And we Bre continuing to be involved, because, aIring with Johanna Eutler, the retiring Vice tl President of S.T.A"G~, we do run t1Hosato , the European ·a.p.d. Commonwealth Fan Club of George TBkei, and we are following up some very exciting ideas for this club. In conclusion, we would like to thank, most sincerely, all the retiring members of S .. T.A.G.; Johanna Butler; Marian Kennedy, Jennifer Harding and Karen Gilmurray, who have worked hard, long hours for the club. ,We·would also like to thank Janet Quarton and He~en McOa rthy for their hard work as club officials whilst we were in office- and we wish them luck in. their continuence with ·:S:~:A.G. as we do the newcomers - Sheila and Beth. And of course, to all of S.T.A.G.'s members, without whom the club would not have been possible. This is a new eraot S.T.A.G. and we know that She will most certainly Live.longand prospeE . : Peace! Jenny and Terry. ******************* And the B .B. C. have .don.e it again.! " They are now threatening to put. ST1\R TREK on OVel? the Christmas period. (By. the time you read this, youlll know ifthe,Y heve, in fact, done that horrible thing to us.) Because for ev~ry· 6ne of us wh6 cen manage to watch STAR TREK halfway through the morning, there are fifty who can l t. So why don!t we write them.

    MODELS OF TIME TRAVEL A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING FILMS Guy Roland Micklethwait A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July 2012 National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences APPENDIX I: FILMS REVIEWED Each of the following film reviews has been reduced to two pages. The first page of each of each review is objective; it includes factual information about the film and a synopsis not of the plot, but of how temporal phenomena were treated in the plot. The second page of the review is subjective; it includes the genre where I placed the film, my general comments and then a brief discussion about which model of time I felt was being used and why. It finishes with a diagrammatic representation of the timeline used in the film. Note that if a film has only one diagram, it is because the different journeys are using the same model of time in the same way. Sometimes several journeys are made. The present moment on any timeline is always taken at the start point of the first time travel journey, which is placed at the origin of the graph. The blue lines with arrows show where the time traveller’s trip began and ended. They can also be used to show how information is transmitted from one point on the timeline to another. When choosing a model of time for a particular film, I am not looking at what happened in the plot, but rather the type of timeline used in the film to describe the possible outcomes, as opposed to what happened.

  • Star Trek and the 1960'S Sung J. Woo English 268 Professor Sawyer April
    Star Trek and the 1960's Sung J. Woo English 268 Professor Sawyer April 26, 1993 Star Trek is an important cultural artifact of the Sixties. In the guise of science fiction, the series dealt with substantive concerns such as Vietnam...and civil rights. It explored many of the cultural conflicts of our society by projecting them onto an idealized future.i Not many television shows have accomplished what Star Trek has done. A show that ran for only three seasons, between 1966 and 1969, Star Trek has become a phenomenon of epic proportions. Frank McConnell considers Star Trek a myth: Now that's [Star Trek] what a real mythology is. Not a Joseph Campbell/Bill Moyers discourse...about the proper pronunciation of `Krishna,' but a set of concepts, stories, names, and jokes to fit, and fit us into, the helter-skelter of the quotidian."ii Star Trek survives because it was more than just a television show that made people laugh or cry. It was a show that reached for more, for new ideals and new ideas, for substance. Star Trek indeed is a cultural artifact of the Sixties, and this is readily apparent in many of the episodes. "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield" is a racial parable; "A Taste of Armageddon" is allegorical to Vietnam and war in general; "Turnabout Intruder" deals with women's rights; and "The Paradise Syndrome" and "The Way to Eden" reflects heavily on pop culture. Yet it is important to see that although these episodes mirrored the culture of the Sixties, not all of them were in approval of it.

  • American International Pictures (AIP) Est Une Société De Production Et
    American International Pictures (AIP) est une société de production et distribution américaine, fondée en 1956 depuis "American Releasing Corporation" (en 1955) par James H. Nicholson et Samuel Z. Arkoff, dédiée à la production de films indépendants à petits budgets, principalement à destination des adolescents des années 50, 60 et 70. 1 Né à Fort Dodge, Iowa à une famille juive russe, Arkoff a d'abord étudié pour être avocat. Il va s’associer avec James H. Nicholson et le producteur-réalisateur Roger Corman, avec lesquels il produira dix-huit films. Dans les années 1950, lui et Nicholson fondent l'American Releasing Corporation, qui deviendra plus tard plus connue sous le nom American International Pictures et qui produira plus de 125 films avant la disparition de l'entreprise dans les années 1980. Ces films étaient pour la plupart à faible budget, avec une production achevée en quelques jours. Arkoff est également crédité du début de genres cinématographiques, comme le Parti Beach et les films de motards, enfin sa société jouera un rôle important pour amener le film d'horreur à un niveau important avec Blacula, I Was a Teenage Werewolf et Le Chose à deux têtes. American International Pictures films engage très souvent de grands acteurs dans les rôles principaux, tels que Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester et Vincent Price, ainsi que des étoiles montantes qui, plus tard deviendront très connus comme Don Johnson, Nick Nolte, Diane Ladd, et Jack Nicholson. Un certain nombre d'acteurs rejetées ou 2 négligées par Hollywood dans les années 1960 et 1970, comme Bruce Dern et Dennis Hopper, trouvent du travail dans une ou plusieurs productions d’Arkoff.

  • GUNSMOKE TV CAST and DETAILS Premiered
    GUNSMOKE TV CAST AND DETAILS Premiered: September 10, 1955, on CBS Rating: TV-PG Premise: This landmark adult Western centered on Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City. John Wayne turned down the lead, suggesting James Arness (who remained for its entire run). Originating on radio (with William Conrad as Dillon), it moved to TV in September 1955. Its popularity spawned a number of copycats, but none would enjoy the longevity (and few the consistent quality) of this classic. Airing for 20 years, it's TV's longest running prime-time drama (a record that `Law & Order' is currently chasing). Gunsmoke Cast • James Arness : Marshal Matt Dillon • Milburn Stone : Dr. Galen `Doc' Adams • Amanda Blake : Kitty Russell • Dennis Weaver : Chester Goode • Ken Curtis : Festus Haggen • Burt Reynolds : Quint Asper • James Nusser : Louie Pheeters • Charles Seel : Barney Danches • Howard Culver : Howie Culver • Tom Brown : Ed O'Connor • John Harper : Percy Crump • Dabbs Greer : Mr. Jonus • George Selk : Moss Grimmick • Hank Patterson : Hank Miller • Glenn Strange : Sam • Sarah Selby : Ma Smalley • Ted Jordan : Nathan Burke • Roger Ewing : Clayton Thaddeus `Thad' Greenwood • Roy Roberts : Mr. Bodkin • Woody Chamblis : Mr. Lathrop • Buck Taylor : Newly O'Brien • Charles Wagenheim : Halligan • Pat Hingle : Dr. John Chapman • Fran Ryan : Miss Hannah Gunsmoke Credits • Sam Peckinpah : Screenwriter Gunsmoke Directors • Harry Horner : Director Gunsmoke Guest Cast • Aaron Saxon : Basset • Aaron Spelling : Weed Pindle • Abraham Sofaer : Harvey Easter • Adam West : Hall
